I was able to get a small bundle recently before they were all gone. It came today & what fun! I got the "shades of brown, small cuts, 5lbs" bundle. I could see from the picture that there was a piece of wool coating w/ white tufts that had sold out before I got around to ordering. There's plenty of it for a scarf & to trim out a coat. I got a piece of chocolate rayon jersey, if not enough for a simple top, certainly plenty for color blocking. There's chocolate heather piece of wool jersy, a nice dark brone w/ silver floral cotton brocade for a purse, a nice size piece of animal print rainwear, 2 nice size peices of dark brown twill in what feels like silk/linen, a neutral wool ribbed knit & a small piece of silver, gold & brown zig zag knit. I should have given the unopened box to DH to put under the Christmas tree. What fun it would have been to open Christmas morning

What fun. How much did you pay for your bundle, and how many pieces were large enough for an entire garment?

I paid $22.50 & probably 4 pieces out of 10 are large enough for a small garment - top , skirt or bag of adult size.

That sounds like a super deal Chelsy. I'm sure you don't have to worry about flaws with Linda's fabrics either. She's a one woman workhorse too, that will never be bought out by Amazon. We should all support these entrepeneurs like EmmaOneSock. Her roll ends have been some of my best deals.

Yes, I knew it would be safe ordering from Linda. She only has beautiful fabrics

Darn, I can't believe Linda had bundles again and I missed them! I loved her bundles - the first one I got, which was all browns/earth tones, I managed to drag out for well over a year, there were so many goodies in it.

I purchased one of her rayon/lycra bundles and can't wait for it to arrive. I am just learning to sew on knits, and this bundle is suppose to be mostly about 1 1/2 yds lengths or more, so I can make lots of tops, skirts, etc. This is my first and it was just a fluke I was able to purchase it as many of the other bundles were already sold!

That's a great price. I'll have to put myself on Linda's email list.

Revisiting an old thread to compliment Linda at EmmaOnesock and her husband, Eric, for keeping the fabric moving.

Also, i have noticed some smaller cuts being listed in roll ends and thought it would be a good opportunity for folks to experiment with new fabrics.

If you have local sewing pals, consider sharing your orders (under one name) to take advantage of free shipping that kicks in at $250.00.

Currently, EOS does have elastic and typically high quality woven cotton that was Ordered in for face masks. The pictured 'OkeoTex certified for nontoxic dyes or chemicals' fabric is on the way here for masks for some small friends.
